Title: LG brings its innovative 2-in-1 DualUp monitor to the US market
Post by: Redaktion on June 17, 2022, 17:57:56
The LG DualUp Monitor has just been announced in terms of pricing and availability for the US market. Its unusual name can be explained via its form-factor, which leads to an extremely rare 16:18 aspect-ratio and what the OEM calls a Square Double QHD (SDQHD) resolution, which allows the user to get 2 stacked 21.5-inch windows out of the same device. The DualUp also benefits from a USB type-C port and a flexible Ergo Stand.

So...it's just a monitor that comes with a desk-mount adjustable extension arm? do we really consider that "genius"?

It's the aspect ratio that makes it different, not the stand.

They had me at >16:9, lost me at being *too* tall, and burnt the bridge with 60Hz. We need more aspect ratios to choose from, and I can see how this one is useful, but this ain't it chief.

Also the chin kind of ruins the aesthetic for horizontal use.
